Mach3 under Vista / Re: Need Direction for what to try next.
« on: August 12, 2022, 07:40:17 PM »
I'm having the same kind of problem with Win 7 pro.
Long story short- bought a machine all set up, with the computer & mach3 already installed.
Bought another machine that uses mach3 as well - set up a different profile for 2nd machine.
Found out after the fact- the mach3 copy i had, was a pirated copy
so i looked into getting a new legal copy of mach3- the website advised copying the XML Profile ( to save pin settings, etc..) Downloaded the "newest" version of Mach3 on a thumb drive, & installed it.
Every time i try to open the program, select a profile - computer crashes & re starts. uninstalled the program, re installed and tried again, still having same problem.
This computer is NOT ONLINE - checked for update KB284826 & KB4284826, no sign of either.
Tried installing on an XP laptop - opened up, but did not show the visuals (coordinates, stop, start, etc..) - once again, not online.
"support" tells me to buy another computer - when it was working before.
This program was supposed to be capable of running on XP to Win 10
Now i can not run either machine.
P.S. 1st machine uses the printer port while the 2nd uses USB - i also tried system restore and found out it was turned off, no luck there.
